The uniquely restored 17th Century Riding House is a building of countryside luxury and charm. A presence of the original horse stables remains through exposed brick floors, stable gates and carefully preserved fabrics. There is a large dining room, kitchen, shoot lodge-esque lounge and eight unique bedrooms adorned with hanging fabrics and cast iron balustrades up to the mezzanine en-suites.
The building has two levels – the ground floor consists of the entrance lobby, dining room, kitchen and two bedrooms, while the other six bedrooms and lounge are on the first floor.
Set in the grounds of a stunning country estate, this location was previously a grooms’ cottages and has been refurbished into two maisonette with an equestrian theme, true to their historic purpose.
Both cottages have their own separate entrances with compact lounge, rustic kitchen, two bedrooms with king-sized beds and freestanding copper baths and step-in showers.
